Sir MVIT college

Sir MVIT is a very reputated college in banglore and many students sought to get admission in it. The admission is based on rank obtained in entrance exam namely Comedk and KCET, there are various seats available for management quota students. I considered various blogs like college duniya, Career 360 etc to check the college ranking and filled this college in for the councelling rounds.

I chose Computer Science Engineering course as it was the one where my interest lies. But one can chose Information Science Engineering too as it has the same curriculum as Computer Science. The students to faculty ratio is about 1:20 and also the curriculum is very outdated just like every other state university. VTU is considered to be very cheap when the corrections are done for exams. Getting a good GPA like 8.0 or above is a luxury here. The exams will be held in Dec and June, which is a month late than the other universities. So if you think you can visit back home and meet other friends then you're mistaken.

I received an internship from Cognizant after I was selected in Campus placement. They offered a stipend of 12000 and in the internship we had to learn about the software development cycle. All the types of testing like unit testing and module testing etc were taught. An overview of agile development was given along with other components of software development.

Sir MVIT has a good reputation in the terms of placements. Almost every year around 80% of students get placed in various companies. The highest package ranges from 12-14LPA with an average of 4LPA. Most students are placed in mass recruiters like Accenture, Cognizant and TCS but few reputated companies like Microfocus, Target, Tally etc also come here with higher package.

Campus life can be very boring and very interesting, it all depends on the student. One can have a college at the heart of the city and not enjoy it while other might have college at the outskirts of the city and still enjoy it to the fullest. It's better if you join a club in the start and then indulge in its activities so you won't have to think about how to spend your time. You'll already have friends to do some activities together.

The annual fees for students coming via Comedk is 3 times of those who come via KCET. While I paid 180000+ the students of KCET paid only around 60000. The state quota gives students opportunity to avail scholarship and most localites try to avail this opportunity.

The hostels are really good in terms of lodging. Wifi is available in the hostels and you won't have to worry about anything the concerns with the lodging. But the mess is just how other messes are. You might be able to digest the food if you have a good digestive system. But most students order food online or go to nearby dhabas and restaurants to get their daily nutrition. The only time you'll find yourself going to the mess is sometimes in the morning for breakfast or in evening for snacks.

There is no provision of Group Discussion or Personal Interview when joining a college under VTU when you come through entrance tests. Similar is the case of management students. The only criteria for admission is the merit. I came through Comedk and for that i had to do the similar prepration that one does for any entrance exam.
